We don’t offer any commission for pointing buyers and sellers to this site.

Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

My mum and dad cant seem to find their Northop land registry title on the online search facility. They recall that back in the 60’s when they bought the property there were complications concerning Northop not being identified on some systems.

Nearly all premises in Northop should be revealed. Have you attempted a search with simply the postcode. Ordinarily it will reveal all the premises inside the postcode. Where registered it will be there with a title number. Where they bought back in the 60’s it's conceivable it may be unregistered. The address may still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to locate the original title documentation which may be with your parent’s lender.
